Point is, I want to get that horrid rain-x off my windshield!
I sure hope the brake cleaner, recommended by Kraagen, works. Time will
tell.

I used a glass cleaning product from the FLAPS that has some clay
dispersed
in a solvent system. The clay is not abrasive to glass, but provides a
large surface
area which helps compete for the surface active materials in RainX and
the like.

Like jewelers rouge?

No, not jewelers rouge, but that would also provide a large surface area.

Kaolin, typically, may be used.

The material I bought was packaged in sealed foil envelopes, but I dont
remember the brand name.

You may also remember the old BonAmi product which was of a very
low order of abrasiveness. It was ground feldspar, IIRC.
